If you don't already know, then you need to go do your research before you assume he's racist.

This is Trudeau we're talking about, not someone who's actually racist like Joe Rogaine.

If you’re not able to answer then that’s OK. You’re the one that threw the question like it was some kind of meaningful statement, and I was waiting for your follow through. If it was relevant then I assumed you would’ve answered your own loaded question. Ass/u/me. Oh well.

I mean, I'm still right that they're not known for their cool heads.

Just look at your response.

The only ones getting trampled are the ones not moving away form the horses. LOL
"Fox News contributor Sara Carter, the woman tramped by the mounted patrol may have passed away in the hospital." A Fox News contributor?? Really? Fox News LOL Absolutely no collaboration for the statements she has made.

LOL? OK. This was news to me so I spent about two minutes with Google to see if this could be verified.

Apparently (above) this is Sarah Carter at Fox News (who I’ve never heard of before this morning). Sounds like she “reported” that somebody was knocked over by a horse, and not that she herself was knocked over by a horse.

This is the woman (below) in Ottawa (notice the red jacket) that apparently was knocked over by a horse:

These look like two different people to me.

Then here is the woman with a bicycle that was thrown under a horse to cause it harm:

Strange looking bicycle, and generally I would ass/u/me that when one throws a bicycle they usually get off of it first?

Personally I believe that this whole protest in Ottawa should have wound itself up three weeks ago, and I am not an advocate of the disruption and the horn honking that has taken place since, but if I see an outright lie I will sure as shit point it out.

CTV, CBC, some Joe Handonmycock on the street...

Only difference is better quality equipment for one and not the other.

I was just watching the global one and man do the police have to be patient.

There will be a lot of counselling needed for them and certainly for some of these people who have been hoodwinked into believing they're standing up for freedom.

To me - and I haven't listened to her version or seen actual video, it looks like this woman, with a walker, was likely pushed over when a horse shoved into her.

So I've questions:

1. Horses are big and hard NOT to see coming; was the horse coming too fast for her to move out of the way? (walkers mean a person is usually mobility compromised somehow)
2. Was the horse shying away from someone else and hit the woman accidentally?
3. Was the rider unaware of the woman (behind the rider and horse's view maybe? Sort of similar to question 2; did the horse shy its butt into her by accident?)
4. Did the rider do this on purpose? Usually mounted policemen are "mobile walls, body blocks" to push people along/herd them in a way the cops want. People aren't going to stand up to a 1000lb animal unless they're stupid/looking to cause an issue.
5. Was there so much going on the rider didn't realize the woman WAS mobility compromised/had a walker?
6. WHY was a woman, with a walker, in the middle of a crowd of protesters? Was she there by accident? On purpose? Get lost in the crowd? Again, horses are big animals; when they start getting involved people need to realize that shit could happen to them - get stomped on, shoved (rarely kicked or bit) - and it may or may not be intentional.

I'm not judging the woman via just these images, just saying I have questions for context at this time.

There is a difference between bias and the outright lies coming from the legacy media.

We're talking live fucking feed, ya twat.

You can't outright edit that shit. You can selectively show your views, sure.

But not 'edit'.

Your insinuation that somehow because CBC and CTV are 'taxpayer funded' thus would somehow have their LIVE feeds be... I don't know, 'less than truthful'? It's stupid.

Unless you agree that, again, Joe Handonmycock's public LIVE feed is just as 'less than truthful' because all he cares about is showing his views and only those views matter...

What makes you think CBC is actually giving you live feed?: Just because they claim it to be? Like all the other les they published about the protest.
